Valenciennes will face Marseille in their upcoming Ligue 1 match, and they enter the game with improved form, securing two recent victories in the championship. Dossevi (double) and Waris played pivotal roles in their last win against Bastia (3-2). Despite their 18th position, Valenciennes is just one point away from avoiding relegation. Ahead of the Marseille clash, coach Ariel Jacobs has some absentees, with Abdou Camara and Jean-Christophe Bahebeck both undergoing treatment. Bahebeck is sidelined due to a hamstring injury, while Camara is dealing with a knee problem. On a positive note, Benjamin Angoua, the Ivorian defender, returns to the squad after completing his two-match suspension.
